The Final Hours of the Current Version of FINAL FANTASY XIV

Been a long time gone from the IGN Blog, but I couldn't live with myself if you missed out on this once-in-a-lifetime event.

FINAL FANTASY XIV as we know it today is winding down to the final hours before the servers are suspended in advance of the Alpha and Beta tests for FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn. What does this mean for all of you?

Let me ask you this: did you play FINAL FANTASY XIV? Maybe you didn't keep up with your account, maybe you recently uninstalled the game, or maybe you haven't played since the game first launched.

Regardless of when you played for the first or last time, everyone is invited to join the final hours event taking place this Saturday, November 10th at 10:00 PM to Sunday, November 11th Midnight (PST) in the area known as Mor Dhona. A massive battle is taking place, and every blade, every arrow, and every spell-casting hand is needed to combat the invading forces.

Your previous purchase of FINAL FANTASY XIV is now your ticket to this final event, and we don't want you to miss it!
